Ups, that is not compatible to you user oriented approach! You blame something and try to find "technical" reasons. As I wrote in my previous posts, there are several resons for that behavior (but not the one you mentioned, that is simply wrong), so either you just report "facts" because you are user oriented, or you do a tecnical approach but then you should accept and try other arguments then yours.
